Met Gevoel en verstand debuteerde de beroemde Britse schrijfster Jane Austen in 1811. Alleen: het boek verscheen anoniem.

Na zijn dood laat hij alles na aan zijn zoon uit een eerder huwelijk, waardoor zijn weduwe en zijn drie dochters in de problemen komen. In de kern draait het verhaal vooral om twee van de drie zussen, Elinor en Marianne.

"Husets prakt förbluffade henne men skänkte ingen tröst. Rummen var alldeles för stora för att hon skulle våga röra sig fritt i dem; hon trodde att hon skulle ha sönder allt hon rörde vid och hon smög omkring i ständig fruktan för ett eller annat; ofta drog hon sig undan till sitt eget rum för att gråta; och den lilla flickan, om vilken det sades i salongen när hon hade lämnat den på kvällen att hon verkade så medveten om sin enastående goda tur som man kunde önska, avrundade varje dags sorger med att snyfta sig till sömns."

In this volume we look at those years of youth through the eyes and pens of classic poets. They reveal times of hardship, of fear, of love and loss.
